Using the Access Control Option
Use the
Access Control
option to configure which clients can access your wireless
network.
Steps
To configure client access:
1. Click
Wireless
from the main menu.
2. Click
Access Control
from the left side menu.
Field descriptions are listed below the
screen example.
NPHY Rate
Sets the Physical Layer (NPHY) rate. Choose Legacy Rate to
use 802.11a or 802.11g modes, and then choose the rate in the
Legacy Rate field.
Legacy Rate
Sets the wireless rate to the chosen 802.11a or 802.11g legacy
rate.
Beacon Interval
Specifies the Beacon Interval from 100 to 65535ms. This value
indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a
packet broadcast by the DDW366 to keep the network
synchronized. A beacon includes information regarding the
wireless networks service area, the access point address, the
broadcast destination addresses, a time stamp, delivery traffic
indicator maps, and the Traffic Indicator Message (TIM).
DTIM Interval
Specifies the DTIM interval from 3 to 255ms. This value
indicates how often the DDW366 sends out a Delivery Traffic
Indication Message (DTIM). Lower settings result in more
efficient networking, while preventing your wireless clients from
dropping into power-saving sleep mode. Higher settings allow
your wireless clients to enter sleep mode, thus saving power,
but interferes with wireless transmissions.
Fragmentation
Threshold
Specifies the fragmentation threshold packet size between 256-
2346 bytes. Fragmentation takes place when a packet’s size
exceeds the fragmentation threshold.
RTS Threshold
Specifies the RTS (request to send) threshold from 0 to 2347ms.
This setting determines how large a packet can be before the
DDW366 coordinates transmission and reception to ensure
efficient communication. This value should remain at its default
setting of 2347 bytes. If you encounter inconsistent data flow,
minor modification to this setting is recommended.
